NCBI Protein Information
receptor-like protein kinase 2
NCBI Summary
Encodes a receptor-like kinase RPK2 (also known as TOADSTOOL 2/TOAD2). Functions as a regulator of meristem maintenance. Mutants are insensitive to synthetic CLV3 peptide. Mutations in the RPK2 also result in stem cell expansion and increased number of floral organs, as seen in the other clv mutants. Forms homo-oligomers.

UniProt Comments
Key regulator of anther development (e.g. lignification pattern), including tapetum degradation during pollen maturation (e.g. germination capacity). Together with RPK1, required for pattern formation along the radial axis (e.g. the apical embryonic domain cell types that generate cotyledon primordia), and the apical-basal axis (e.g. differentiation of the basal pole during early embryogenesis).
